Collect, map, and analyse coastal data directly on your iPhone Coastal Fieldwork is a powerful field data collection and analysis tool designed for geography teachers and students conducting coastal investigations. The app uses built-in iPhone capabilities to support common coastal fieldwork methods while automatically mapping and organising the data you collect. Ideal for GCSE, A-level, and university fieldwork, Coastal Fieldwork helps students record reliable measurements, capture site evidence, and analyse results directly in the field. Capture Fieldwork Data with Your iPhone Coastal Fieldwork uses the sensors and tools built into your iPhone to support authentic geographical investigation. Record and map: Geolocated field measurements using latitude and longitude
 Site photographs captured during fieldwork
 Sediment sample size and roundness observations
 Rock identification using camera-based tools such as Google Lens
 Wave counts using a built-in timer
 Longshore drift experiments
 Beach groyne observations comparing updrift and downdrift sediment levels
 Beach sediment infiltration rates Every data point is automatically linked to its location and mapped, allowing you to see your results spatially as you collect them. Built-In Fieldwork Tools The app includes a range of tools designed specifically for coastal investigations: Clinometer tool using iPhone motion sensors to support longshore drift experiments
 Wave count timer for coastal process studies
 AR measurement tools using Apple ARKit to measure sand height differences around groynes
 Geolocated data collection with automatic mapping
 Photo capture and documentation tools Bibliography Builder - scan book ISBN barcodes with the iPhone camera to add to Bibliography This allows students to complete multiple coastal fieldwork techniques using a single device. Analyse Your Data in the Field Coastal Fieldwork doesn’t just collect data, it helps you interpret it. Within the app you can: View annotated maps of all fieldwork sites
 Compare measurements across locations
 Review observations, photos, and measurements together
 Identify emerging patterns in your data On devices that support Apple Intelligence, the app can also examine your collected data in relation to your enquiry question and hypotheses, providing additional insights to support analysis. Export Your Investigation When your fieldwork is complete, you can export your results for further analysis or assessment. Export options include: CSV files for use with GIS software such as ArcGIS
 Structured reports including: Enquiry question Hypotheses Methodology Data presentation Data analysis Includes NEA Superbutton - Create a draft template of your NEA incorporating your enquiry question and hypotheses and all your collected data. This makes it easy for students to transform field data into a complete geographical investigation report. Designed for Education Coastal Fieldwork is ideal for: GCSE Geography fieldwork
 A-level Geography investigations
 Undergraduate coastal geography field courses
 Teachers organising coastal field trips
 Students conducting independent enquiries By combining field measurement tools, mapping, photography, and analysis in one app, Coastal Fieldwork helps students focus on geographical enquiry rather than paperwork. Turn your iPhone into a complete coastal fieldwork toolkit.
